## Resource

Over 7,300 killed in Iran and Lebanon since February 28th — a war ignited by U.S. and Israeli strikes now claiming hundreds of children and dozens of medics. Official figures likely hide the true toll, as internet blackouts, censorship, and armed factions block independent verification. Analysts warn the death count across the Middle East is far higher than reported. In Iran and Lebanon, families are broken, communities erased — while a fragile peace deal offers hope, the real cost of this conflict may never be fully known. Rebuilding begins, but the scars will echo for decades. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
